Higherarchical Audio Channels (Discord)


Cybrex

Recommended Posts

So, considering Discord is the widely used communications program throughout our community here, thought it would be a good idea to rally up some support to get a feature request to go through that every group here could benefit from. There are several threads on the Discord site for this so I listed below the best ones to vote for. (imo)

 

SHARE PLEASE - Just copy the link below and share it across any other discord servers you are apart of. 

 

EDIT (Use this one) - https://feedback.discordapp.com/forums/326712-discord-dream-land/suggestions/13510158-add-ability-to-shout-talk-to-all-channels-for-larg

 

Channel Commander - https://feedback.discordapp.com/forums/326712-discord-dream-land/suggestions/10590876-chan-commander-to-speak-to-another-commander-on

 

Note: There are some other threads made for this request, but this one is what we found to be matching what we think best suits our and DUs needs.

"I'm a part of a few Discord servers for gamers that have assembled fleets(in Elite: Dangerous mainly but I suppose this would also help other players groups) that have masses of members. So we found that the best way to organise people was to assign them squadrons with a separate Audio Channels for each. The problem with this is to co-ordinate the squadrons the Higher ups have to do a huge amount of "Channel Hopping" to co-ordinate with the other voice channels.

 

It would be a lot easier organisation wise If Discord had an option to Pass in the Audio from multiple channels into one Higher level audio channel with a custom Keybind for PTT to each Lower level of audio channel.

Essentially It allows Admins/Higher ups in the fleets to Hear what everyone is saying and handle multiple channels without having to "channel hop".

 

Thanks."

 

 

 

Granted, there are already several VCs that do have this feature, the point is to keep everything within one app versus spreading everyone across multiple communication apps. While we don't know specifics for DU in how communication will work, we do know that Discord isn't exactly friendly when it comes to large crowds in Voice Chat channels. 

 

If you can take the time to upvote that feature, we can bump it up on the priority list for the developers to get it going. It doesn't take any effort but signing in to your Discord account and clicking that upvote icon. 

 

Thanks,

Cybrex

It may be worth promoting this Discord suggestion as well because it accomplishes the same thing you're looking for (and has more votes):

Similar, but "Channel Commander" allows for assigning a commander permission to players so that they can all communicate on a secondary channel (the commander's channel) rather than having the ability to speak to all channels at once. 

 

In any sufficiently large Eve TeamSpeak, Channel Commander is how fleet commanders are able to coordinate amongst others leaders. That's why you'll often hear them telling everyone to STFU, because they're trying to listen on the commander's channel (effectively being in two channels at once).

I'll add that in the post as well, im not picky about the feature, just as long as get we something.
